July 22, 2025: While celebrity romances may come and go, Nina Dobrev’s most loyal companion has never wavered: her four-legged soulmate, Maverick. The Vampire Diaries star just dropped a viral reel that answers the trending question, “Aren’t you sick of each other yet?” with a big, hilarious no.
In the video, Nina and Maverick share a full day of peak bonding: waking up in matching pajamas, sipping coffee while reading the headlines (yes, Maverick’s in on the news), washing dishes together, and relaxing in a sauna like a true wellness influencer and her furry sidekick. They even cruise around in sunglasses, looking cooler than half of Hollywood. Forget couple goals—this is dog mom bliss in its finest form.

Maverick, a Border Collie–Australian Shepherd mix, was adopted in 2017 from The Pet Care Foundation in Los Angeles. Named after Tom Cruise’s Top Gun character, she quickly became the main character in Nina’s life—and her Instagram feed. Maverick’s charm, sass, and camera-ready charisma earned her a fanbase of her own, with her dedicated account @mrs.maverick clocking hundreds of thousands of followers.
Whether she’s celebrating holidays, stealing the spotlight in photo dumps, or just lounging in designer dog beds, Maverick has redefined the celebrity pet game. Nina may have starred in hits, but Maverick is the scene-stealer we didn’t know we needed.
